Chapter 136 The Arrival of Yarop

Nie Yan was quite surprised. Yarop brought NPCs back?

What exactly had happened?

Filled with questions, Nie Yan hurried towards the mercenary guild in Okoron City.

When he arrived, many players from Nirvana Guild were crowded inside the guild, a sea of people.

"The boss is here."

"Boss Nie Yan is here."

Seeing Nie Yan, they made way for him. Nie Yan finally saw Yarop emerging from the mercenary guild.

Yarop was a head taller than ordinary players, making him stand out. But what was even more striking was that behind Yarop were two or three dozen burly men. They were like iron towers, imposing a heavy pressure.

Nie Yan even suspected that these guys might have barbarian blood.

"Respected master, they are my brothers. They fought alongside me in the various tribes of Abernathy. After I was captured by Sampur, they were expelled by Kavanagh. When they learned that I came to Okoron, they were willing to follow me," Yarop said.

Nie Yan used Super Appraisal to check the attributes of those burly men. Most of them were level 160 or 170 elites, and five of them, like Yarop, were level 180 elites.

This was a windfall. These people had already joined the Okoron City Guard, which surprised and delighted Nie Yan.

"Yarop, from now on, you will be the commander of the First Legion of the Okoron City Guard. The First Legion will have a complement of five hundred, and you will have full command," Nie Yan said solemnly.

When Yarop looked up, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Thank you, respected master. Yarop swears in the name of the grassland god Bekapein that he will certainly live up to your trust," Yarop bowed deeply.

A cheer erupted from behind Yarop.

Nie Yan counted them. There were a total of twenty-eight people who came with Yarop, all of them warriors. Their clothes were very tattered, and their skin, tanned black by the sun, was exposed, covered with scars.

"Give them some healing, and then equip them with the best gear. Bring the components of those two Rock Set armors for Yarop," Nie Yan said to Wu Dao.

Soon, Wu Dao and Knight's Elegy brought a large pile of equipment and distributed it to Yarop and the others. After receiving the equipment, the NPCs were completely renewed, and they were even more grateful to Nie Yan. These big guys looked even more imposing after putting on full sets of metal armor.

So far, Okoron City had recruited one hundred and thirty-six NPC guards. With the development of Okoron, more and more NPCs would definitely join the Okoron City Guard in the future.

The next day, Nie Yan invested more than ten million gold coins to upgrade Okoron City to an intermediate city.

The fact that so much money could be raised in such a short period of time to directly upgrade Okoron City to an intermediate city amazed the players with the powerful financial resources of Nirvana Guild. Based on Nirvana Guild's past performance, Okoron City would definitely become a prosperous metropolis. The future development of Okoron City was promising. Teams from both the Glorious Empire and the Satreen Empire set out to Okoron City in groups, all hoping to strike it rich there.

The news of the continuous expansion of the Okoron City Guard quickly reached Qin Han.

Nie Yan's actions were a bit too big, and Qin Han gradually became restless. Unable to attack Okoron City, which was far away in the Abernathy Great Plains, he set his sights on Nirvana Guild's fortress in Carole City. Nirvana Guild's fortress in Carole City began to be frequently attacked by the Skeleton Army. Nirvana Guild used the fortresses as strongholds, putting up a resolute resistance.

The tug-of-war continued. Continuing to delay would be advantageous to Nirvana Guild, and Nie Yan was not in a hurry to have a decisive battle with Qin Han. As long as Nirvana Guild defended the fortress, Qin Han's Skeleton Army would be like a lion facing a hedgehog, unable to bite. Nie Yan understood that Qin Han was brewing a fierce offensive. Before that, he had to accumulate enough capital to fight Qin Han.

More and more NPCs entered Okoron City, and the successful entry of many chambers of commerce also added a lot of popularity to the city.

"Boss Nie Yan, several guilds from the Abernathy Great Plains are requesting to establish guild headquarters in our Okoron City. Should we agree?" Knight's Elegy asked. After arriving in Okoron City, he was responsible for managing the various affairs of Okoron City.

"Which guilds are they?" Nie Yan asked. As Okoron City developed, many guilds would inevitably request to move in. He didn't know much about the information of the Abernathy Great Plains, only a general idea.

The Abernathy Great Plains was different from other places. There were people from both the Glorious Empire and the Satreen Empire here. On the streets of Okoron City, there were humans and orcs, and most of them were transients. Many came to the Abernathy Great Plains to do quests or level up. Few stayed here for a long time. He couldn't say exactly how many guilds were active in this grassland, and how many guilds were just passing through.

The guild organizations that had been stationed here for a long time naturally wanted to find a guild headquarters when they saw Okoron City being established.

"More than twenty guilds have submitted applications. Some guilds have even made some excessive demands, such as requesting that we provide them with street-front guild headquarters," Knight's Elegy said. He was very unhappy with those guilds that made demands. These guys were relying on their influence in the Abernathy Great Plains to put pressure on Nirvana Guild. With the strength of Nirvana Guild, how could they be threatened! However, out of responsibility to Nirvana Guild, he suppressed his anger and relayed the matter to Nie Yan.

Knight's Elegy sent Nie Yan a list. Nie Yan looked at it, and it listed detailed information on twenty-five guilds, some from the Glorious Empire and some from the Satreen Empire. The guild with the largest number of members had 170,000 members, and the guild with the smallest number of members had only more than 2,000. The total number of members in these twenty-five guilds reached more than 700,000.

Nie Yan was a little surprised that so many players were active in the Abernathy Great Plains.

After thinking about it, most of these guilds dealt with the various tribes of the Abernathy Great Plains and usually operated near the camps of those tribes. Because it was the border between the Glorious Empire and the Satreen Empire, commercial transactions and the mercenary industry were particularly developed, so there were so many people active here.

"Tell them that they can move in, and we can also set up guild headquarters for them. Getting street-front property is impossible, and they have to abide by Okoron's rules. Guilds that move into Okoron must sign a collaborative defense alliance agreement. Once Okoron is attacked, they must also defend the city. If they don't want to survive in the Abernathy Great Plains, Nirvana Guild doesn't mind kicking them out of the Abernathy Great Plains. They'd better not doubt whether Nirvana Guild has the strength to do so," Nie Yan said. He understood that once concessions were made to these guilds, they would definitely think that Nirvana Guild was afraid and become even more demanding. Although Nirvana Guild's main force still had to fight the undead army of Qin Han, they were not afraid of these small guilds. Although they couldn't spare manpower for the time being, Nirvana Guild's momentum must not be lost.

Knight's Elegy was very excited after hearing this and responded, going to reply to those guilds.

After about an hour, Knight's Elegy sent a message that sixteen guilds were willing to sign a collaborative defense treaty with Nirvana Guild and move into Okoron City. Several large guilds were unwilling to come.

Nie Yan looked at it. The sixteen guilds that moved in had about 360,000 people. He found that the Dark Chanting Guild, which he had encountered when killing the Ape King, was on the list. The entry of these guilds into Okoron City would greatly increase the popularity of Okoron City.

Nie Yan received more than two hundred Flame Blast Bombs that Zi Yan had just made.

The Flame Blast Bomb was two inches long, with a sharp, cone-shaped front, like a miniature rocket. It was made entirely of dark gold metal. The Flame Blast Bomb was still relatively dangerous. Contact with water or violent impact would cause an explosion. The attack of the Flame Blast Bomb could even cause very serious damage to some high-level lords. It was a very powerful item.

Nie Yan made some modifications to the Flame Blast Bomb. He took out some top-quality arrows and tied the Flame Blast Bombs to the front of the arrows, making them into special arrows.

After finishing these things, Nie Yan had an idea. Okoron City was developing very quickly and was also very stable. He could take a break from his busy schedule and level up for a while.

"Knight, help me get a copy of the information and coordinates of all the lords in the Abernathy Great Plains and send it to me," Nie Yan sent a message to Knight's Elegy.

"Okay, I'll get it done in five minutes," Knight's Elegy nodded.

In less than three minutes, Knight's Elegy sent Nie Yan the information: "Boss, all the Boss information is here."

Nie Yan looked at the map sent by Knight's Elegy. It was a detailed map of the Abernathy Great Plains, with the locations of all the Bosses and their coordinates clearly marked. Detailed information on each Boss was compiled into a document, which was very organized and clear at a glance.

Nie Yan showed a satisfied smile. Knight's Elegy was still very reliable in handling matters.

With this information, Nie Yan summoned the Darkwing Dragon and jumped onto the Darkwing Dragon's back.

The Darkwing Dragon flapped its wings and took off, flying towards the western Abernathy Great Plains.

The first target was a level 160 lord, the Abernathy Rage Bear.

That Rage Bear was a HP tank-level lord. Nie Yan had also heard of this guy's fame. In his previous life, several of his friends participated in a group to kill the Abernathy Rage Bear, but they were wiped out several times, and it ended up going nowhere. However, he himself had never been to Abernathy, it was a bit far, and it was inconvenient to travel back and forth, which would waste a lot of time.

This time, he was going to solo the Rage Bear. Other than him, no one should dare to do such a crazy thing.
